Rabbi Leff suggests that Avraham had a unique ability to lay bare the lies and the confusion that<br />
reigned. He ‘broke the idols’ – i.e. he showed that you cannot worship the sun on Sunday and the<br />
moon on Monday and still have place in Shul on Shabbos. He recognized that you cannot ‘have<br />
both’ – the idol simply must be destroyed. One G-d means wholehearted service to Him. It means<br />
that you cannot allow confusion.<br />
Thus, Avraham, above all, was the one to introduce the era of the Torah to the world.<br />
Assuming Avraham as our model of educating and parenting means learning many skills – caring<br />
and engaging with our environment. It also means looking and thinking and achieving clarity and<br />
absolutism. It means empowering ourselves and our children with the confidence of 100% truth! A<br />
truth that you can commit to and live by; one that inspires and encourages.<br />
Such is the legacy of Avraham “our Father” – to whom we look for counsel and direction in the<br />
service of Chinuch.<br />
